Wesley "Daddy Duck" James Blanchard, Sr.

Wesley Blanchard was always a joy to help when he came in to the office or called. My sympathies are with the entire family, I know you will miss that big smile, I know I will. May he rest in peace.

Taught me car repairs long ago and let us drive back roads long before we were old enough

Mr Wesley you will truly be missed, you knew how to bring people together and your love for older cars was amazing. RIP ❤

Thoughts and Prayers for you and your family

Mrs. Pat my prayers go out to you and your family. You and Mr. Blanchard we’re two of my favorite customers at Merchants & Farmers.

When I think of Wesley, I remember him smiling. He would get me to letter his cars and trailers, and I will miss him greatly. If you knew him, you knew what his loves were. His wife, his family and his cars. My heart goes out to Patricia and his family. Such a good man

You will be missed my friend, love and hugs for all the family.

You were so loved, Mr. Woosley !

I could not have met a nicer man. Always so willing to lend a helping hand and a warm hug. He will be missed by all.

I didn’t get to know Duck for very long but he welcomed me and my children with open arms in what most would have thought would be a tough situation. I remember when he and Patricia opened their home to us to celebrate my son’s graduation we were sitting down eating crawfish and I began to thank him for allowing us to have his celebration there and for all the hospitality he and his wife had always shown us. His response to me honestly was what I considered a beautiful moment given the circumstances most would not have felt this way. He simply said that is what family does! Blessed me more than I can say in words! I will miss our visits together. But we will see each other again.

Praying for the family.

Wesley would always impress with the motors he built and his love of the Big Block. He built a couple for me. He will surely be missed.

Wesley was a great car enthusiast; always very helpful and generous. He always had a smile; we will miss him at our Krazy Larry’s car shows. We are praying for his wife and family.

Chris and I always enjoyed getting together and visiting with Wesley and Patricia. What a fine fella! We loved his stories and his great contagious smile!

That sweet smile, the infectious laughter, and the heartwarming kindness and generosity are going to be missed. Wesley touched so many lives, and I know I am a better person for having known him. Pat, Lots of love and prayers for you and the boys and Michelle, and their families. Just know I am here for you.

My prayers are with y’all .So sorry sending love hugs and kisses . I had the pleasure of knowing this Man . Rest In Peace my friend . Pat sending you my love and prayers

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.
